Autism spectrum disorder occurs due to developmental differences in the brain. It often causes distinct challenges with social interactions and communications, but may also cause symptoms like repetitive behaviors and interests,
There is no cure for autism spectrum disorder. Patients with autism will continue to experience those symptoms and differences for the rest of their lives. However, treatment can help address some of the symptoms of autism spectrum disorder.
In children and younger patients, that treatment may focus on learning basic social and communication skills as well as helping them with behavioral skills that can aid in adapting to social environments. Treatment may also focus on maximizing educational outcomes.
For older patients, treatment for autism spectrum disorders may involve developing coping mechanisms to help cope with extreme sensitivities and avoid meltdowns. Treatment may also involve identifying specific symptoms that stem from autism so that the patient knows where those symptoms come from and what to expect when dealing with them.
No one is entirely certain what causes autism to occur. There are, however, some things that may increase the risk of an autism spectrum disorder. Autism spectrum disorder typically appears in the early years, with symptoms showing in early toddlerhood, but many patients do not receive a diagnosis until adulthood.
Factors that may increase the risk of developing autism may include:
Some environmental factors may also contribute to the risk of developing autism. However, studies have not yet conclusively proven what factors likely contribute to those disorders.
